Immediate Start
£50k - £65k Annual
Full-Time
C++ Software Engineer, Cambridge (on-site)
An established Cambridge engineering company designing advanced imaging and sensor systems is looking for a C++ Software Engineer to join its in-house development team. Their technology is used by defence, security and industrial customers internationally, and is built to perform reliably in demanding real-world environments.
You'll take real ownership across the full software lifecycle, from architecture and design through to build, profiling, optimisation and production support, writing performant, maintainable modern C++ on Windows.
What they're after:

3+ years' commercial C++ experience
Strong grasp of OOP, design patterns and modern C++ standards
Confident with the STL, memory management and concurrency (threading, mutexes)
Comfortable with CMake/Make, Visual Studio, and Git or Subversion
Windows development background
Nice to have: real-time systems, networking or low-level programming, Python or C#, hardware/driver interfacing, and exposure to machine learning on sensor data.
A BSc in a relevant field (or equivalent hands-on experience) rounds things off. You'll join a small, technically strong team working on genuinely advanced technology, with real investment in training and progression, plus a competitive package
